Narayanganj lawmaker AKM Selim Osman has pledged to cooperate in preventing people in his constituency from getting illegal gas connections within the next two months.
He said those using illegal gas connections would be provided with LP gas cylinders if they removed the connections on their own.
“A total of 10,000 such subscribers will get this facility,” said Osman while addressing a meeting in Narayanganj port area yesterday.
He directed Titas Gas officials and local officials to crack down on those using illegal gas connections.
The meeting was organised by Titas Gas in the wake of the obstruction the company officials had faced while disconnecting illegal gas connections. The agenda of the meeting included figuring out ways to resolve the problem.
Titas Gas officials said a consensus had been reached with local officials to take stern action against users of illegal gas connections.
